Shopify

Step 1 of getting you handmade business online is setting up your shopify account. Outside of branding development, Shopify is the best investment I've ever made. It takes away the pain of dealing with hacking together WordPress plugins to hoping you are keeping everything up-to-date so hackers don't take advantage of your site. Shopify simplifies shipping, communications with customers, and has all the in-person selling add-ons you could ever need. Had it been around from day 1 of my business, I would have saved myself hundreds of hours of time. Shopify the top recommendation that I have for every client.
